just wondering if anyone on the forum is running 4 psi or about that.. and what kind of numbers your getting to the wheels. also list other mods in your setup so i can get an idea of where i might stand. thanks

Doesn't appear anyone on that list is running 4 for anything.
Hell, I'm low man at 5!

 

wheel hp & tq? stock motor?

i know its low, im f*cking pissed but parents said if i blow another motor, i have to sell my Z. the dude from condon that sold us the motor said i have to run 3 - 4 psi safely (which i believe is bull****). i want to at least push 5.5. but then again im always scared of losing my car..

 

I'm a Vortech, so my numbers don't matter. Go through that list. The install and TUNE seem to be the deciding factor for TNSTs at 8+psi
Honestly, if you fear losing your car, I would just remove the damn thing. Most of us fear blowing motors, not having our cars taken away.

 

I have one MAP at 4.5 around 305whp and around 280TQ on a Single Turbo (STS)

Edit: Only mod I have is MREV+, the rest is stock...

 

Run 8psi, have the kit installed and tuned by a knowledgeable shop that deals with Z's and G's regularly and you will be fine.

 

thats what im saying...with it being shop tuned, my aem tru-boost and uego a/f, it should be good to go. wish me luck, ill try to have them tune a few maps to choose from, ill just run the map(s) running low boost most of the time.

 

just dont beat on it as much change the oil every 1500 miles be nice to it

 

is that really the standard? 1500 miles? then I'll be changing oil every month Either way I do change mine at around 2500miles.

 

yeah true. its just hard not to run other cars when theyre throwing their ego out at you. smashing them feels wonderful

 

If you're beating them at 4psi, you are doing well.

 

not even boosting yet, im talking about beating people with just exhaust and intake..too many civics and junk looking to race around here.. laff

 

+1 When I had my clutch replaced that was the hardest 400 miles in my life.... There was one instance at around 300miles through my break-in and 2 STI tried to fool around with me thinking I'm NA...Guess what happen, Forget the break-in and I switch to my 8lbs and just live at the moment

 

at 300whp that is pretty good enough to beat most cars out there even M3's

 

with map selector, if you switch over to a diff map, does it go in affect instantaneously or do you have to shut the car off

 

With Utec you can switch Map but only if you're RPM is below 1600 or something.

 

You're in Vegas right? Take it to LA and talk to Sam@GTM. It's not going to be cheap, but it'll be safe at whatever level he has it leave the shop at. I don't think I've heard of one of his cars/engines blowing up yet (aside from George, but his was a push the limits and track the hell out of it... test case )

 

I'm in Vegas. I'm already Tuned though

 

Maybe you should get a job.

 

maybe i have one. thanks. come again.
